Unions announce COVID-19 support for nursing students

The unprecedented challenge facing the NHS means emergency arrangements have been put in place regarding nursing students.
The trade unions representing nursing students – UNISON, the Royal College of Nursing and Unite – have made an agreement with The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and chief nursing officers across the UK that enables more experienced students to be able to help their NHS colleagues where they can, be paid and have this work count towards their learning.
